Definitions
- the present invention relates to methods of purifying silicon.
- Photo voltaic cells are mainly made from mono- or poly-crystalline silicon in dies that involve the solidification of ingots from a liquid bath contained in a crucible.
- the filler used as a base material, is conventionally produced by a process for the distillation of a chlorinated precursor obtained from a metallurgical grade silicon. This process is very efficient for purification, but expensive in terms of financial investment and energy consumption.
- the technique can be well adapted to metallic impurities (Fe, Cr, Ni ...) whose partition coefficients are very small in front of the unit.
- the partition coefficient k measures the ratio between the concentrations of an impurity between the solid phase and the liquid phase at the solidification interface.
- a low coefficient of partition therefore makes it possible to envisage purification by very efficient segregation.
- the present invention aims to meet the aforementioned need.
